ROLL BRAKE
Roll brakes are used for city bikes. These
brakes require almost no adjustment. If the
brake needs adjusting, use the adjustment
screw and adjust the length of the steel
brake line. To loosen the brake, turn the
screw counterclockwise. To tighten the line,
turn the screw clockwise. Make sure that
the wheel turns freely (when the brake is
not engaged). If the wheel is not turning
freely, slightly loosen (extend) the brake
line by turning the screw clockwise.
BRAKE LEVERS
Brake levers allow you to control your
brakes. Trekking or city bikes are usually
equipped with two brake levers, installed on handle bars. Position of brake levers should allow the rider to use the brakes without
excessive effort. Brake levers should be installed within your reach. The position of the brake levers may be adjusted in vertical and
horizontal direction.
IMPORTANT: Correct function of your brakes is very important. Make sure that you know your brake system well before your
first ride. Before each ride inspect your brakes carefully. Keep in mind that on trekking and city bikes the FRONT brake is usually
controlled by the RIGHT lever and the REAR brake is usually controlled by the LEFT lever (mountain and dirt bikes brakes are usually
designed the other way around).
PEDAL INSTALLATION
The pedals are identified with the letters “R” and “L on the bolt face side.
Lubricate the pedal bolts. - Screw the pedal marked
with an “R by turning it clockwise (the side with the
chainrings). Screw the pedal identified with “L into
the left-hand crank by turning it anti-clockwise.
Tighten both the pedals firmly using Spanner No. 15.
After covering a distance of approximately 50 km,
retighten both pedals.
OPERATION OF THE REAR AND FRONT
DERAILLEURS
The gear changing system of your bike changes the gear ratio by shifting the chain from one cog onto another. You can change
gears only while pedalling forwards. The smoothest
movements are performed while pedalling is easy. The
gear changing system is equipped with two shifters
installed on the handlebar. The right-hand shifter controls
the chain movement on the 6-7-8 or 9 rear cogs. The chain
is shifted from the smallest cog (the hardest gear) to each
larger cog (easier gear) by moving the shifter forward. The
left-hand shifter controls the chain movement on three
front chainrings. The chain is shifted from the smaller
